      I’m not sure that all laptops support capping, and I’m not sure if Panasonic ToughBook supports the drivers necessary to cap. I guess you could deploy TLP and check sudo tlp-stat -b

        it’s not a toughbook and idk how to configure it but my letsnote cf-rz6 came with the battery charge capped at 80%, maybe it can be configured with their windows tool (or the acpi call made by that tool). i already have linux on it so can’t check tho…
